Best Kids Parties: Chinese New Year

We held a Chinese New Year party at my art studio (Early Masters). It was lots of fun with guests beading their own 'friendship' bracelets in red and gold with a Chinese Dragon symbol.

There was a projected movie upstairs followed by Chinese food afterwards. I made a vanilla cake with red fondant icing and painted on it with edible gold. Treat bags were take-out containers from our local Chinese restaurant (who also supplied us with our dinner). They contained lucky orange, gold covered chocolate money in chinese, Hello Kitty envelops, and Chinese fans.
